Effect of humic acid doses on yield and quality parameters of cowpea[Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] cultivars

Abstract: Present research was conducted to determine the effect of humic acid (HA) on the yield and nutritional characteristics of cowpea varieties to provide an alternative crop for sustainable agricultural systems. Field trials were carried out for 2 years in Konya/Turkey ecology. HA was applied in 4 doses (0, 70, 110 and 150 kg ha -1 in total) on 2 cowpea varieties (Akkiz and Karagoz) and a total of 20 parameters were evaluated. Results showed that, 1000 seed weight, seed yield, protein yield, potassium and manganes… Show more

“…Furthermore, development of sustainable agriculture can be realized by take care on efficiently usage of non-renewable resources and also natural biological cycles and controls, as well. In that point, conservation of soil and sustainability of its quality is relatively closed to support of sustainable agricultural systems that is also under the effects of cultural practices, tillage, using of pesticides besides climatic conditions and nature of the land surface (Wilson, 1997;Kahraman, 2017).…”

“…The high salt concentration in the soil solution decreases the water potential, reduces the osmotic potential of plant cells, and slow down the division and elongation of plant cells (Kusvuran et al 2007). Humic acid is an organic matter found naturally in the soil, provide several benefits to the soil with regard to structure improvement, retain moisture and microbial activity, also act as a chelating agent, which prevent fixation, leaching, and oxidation of elements and thus promote the ion exchange capacity and nutrient availability in the soil (Ouni et al, 2014), humic acid is one of the organic-mineral fertilizers that increases the soil fertility (Kahraman, 2017), has positive effects at the different stages of plant growth, from seed germination and seedling growth to the development of shoots and roots (Adani et al,1998), acts like the plant growth regulators, stimulates growth, development and yield (Karakurt et al, 2009), enhances enzyme activity and the permeability of cell membranes (Asri et al,2015). A good conditioner for the saline soil which reduces the uptake of toxic elements e.g.…”
